History

Rhigos RFC were formed by the local cricket team that decided they needed a winter sport to allow them to continue playing when the cricket season ended. A vote was made between members on whether to choose rugby or football, and rugby won by a single vote and the club was created. During the 1937/38 season the club won the Pontypridd and District cup beating Rhydyfelin RFC 3-0. Originally playing on the Gwrangon Field, they moved temporarily to Mount Road, before changing grounds again to Newth's Field.

gollark: -halt
gollark: -generate 9x5x9 no cryotheum no enderium efficiency
gollark: I'll try having it do 9x5x9 or something.
gollark: Maybe it should be made to not minimize heat but keep it close to 0 or something.
gollark: Huh, that's weird, it's actually less efficient than the 6x6x6 one.
